I've rarely had troubles with either the old client or the new launcher. Of course, I also keep my system well maintained and know how to repair it if files and settings become corrupted, as they always will from time to time.

Learn how to open an elevated command prompt and perform both a disk and file structure scan and repair with CHKDSK /F and a Windows system scan and repair with SFC /SCANNOW.

Also, learn how to clear your temporary files and caches, either with the built-in Windows applications or a program such as CCleaner.

Furthermore, learn how to perform a file integrity check of the game and how to do a clean install if needs be.

Finally, it goes without saying that your system should be generally up to date with the latest drivers and firmware installed and also malware free. Intermittent errors that can't be attributed to another cause also may be symptoms of a failing power supply. If your system is over five years old and doesn't have a quality power supply, such as a Seasonic Gold Certified one, you might consider replacing it, especially if you have installed new graphics or other power-intensive cards.
